One of the most profound experiences of a lifetime
It is hard to know where to start. My week with Soltara at Goddess Falls was one of the most profound and beautiful experiences of my life. Working with aya and the maestras is the energetic work of ancient wisdom and collective healing and I felt cradled in the love and abundance of Pachamama during my journey. Words cannot convey the power and dedicated of the Shiphibo healers and the knowlege they bring to this experience.
From the moment I stepped foot on the grounds of the Holos property- a regenerative community-based farm and sanctuary for those awakening to a different way of being- I knew that I was in for something special. The grounds and accommodations are absolutely stunning and so much care has been taken to ensure the comfort, health, and safety of the guests. The architecture on the property inspires a sense of awe and connection to the land. The trails through jungle to nearby creeks, natural pools, and the farm are all lovely for daily strolls through the mountain air.
The facilitator team were the kindest humans and were so professional, yet tender, warm, and genuine. We spent hours in "sharemony" sessions during the day, and they opened and held such an inclusive space for the group to be vulnerable, to learn, and to connect. In word and deed, they set the tone for an extremely productive week of learning, healing, growing, and loving. They were never rushed and all had extensive experience and insights into the plant medicine and somatic work. During ceremony, they were ever supportive, yet light and gentle. They understand the space of plant medicine so thoroughly, and were able to compliment the work of the maestras while addressing any needs of the group as they arose. They maintained a safe container and helped the group navigate the journey of the medicina. I felt supported, held, and open throughout my time at Soltara, thanks in large part to the facilitator team.
The food we were served all week was fresh, light, healthy, and delicious! The yoga sessions, sound baths, and visits to waterfalls on the property were all welcome additions to a wellness rooted in a whole body, mind, and soul approach. We were encouraged to rest, restore, be gentle and curious as we became reacquainted with our bodies with the plant medicine at work.
